Urán left a lot of pain in the left leg and arm after the ninth stage accident. Last year's number two was hoping to recover Monday's rest day, but he must give up anyway.
"During the first climb of the mountain on Wednesday, I felt pain throughout the body" who lost a lot of time during the mountain stages of Tuesday and Wednesday. "Unfortunately, I did not recover well enough and I have to leave the Tour."
The Education First-Drapac rider was thirtieth in the overall standings with a delay of 31 minutes over geletruidrager Geraint Thomas.

His team was hoping that Uran could just make a shot at the victory in the Tour, but this plan is now flying up in smoke. "The rider's health is the most important," says Charly Wegelius, Education Director of Education First-Drapac
"Continue would only increase the damage." After consultation, it was decided that he would stop. "He can now recover and work a good continuation of the season."
Urán is not the first ranked cyclist to give up at the Tour de France because Sunday Richie Porte had to leave the Tour. The Australian leader of BMC s' crashed like Urán in the paved phase.
